As far as I know, Mongrel doesn't do that -- there's no parent process managing worker children at all; every mongrel is, in effect, an independent peer. I'm not sure of the technical reason for this -- perhaps spawning workers is too expensive (or workers are generally too large) for this to be effective in practice? I was also a bit confused by this at first, having come from the Apache world -- but yeah, I've never seen any solution that didn't involve treating every mongrel as a separate service.
